We work to help governments in developing and least developed countries implement the World Trade Organization’s Trade Facilitation Agreement.

We do it by bringing together governments and businesses as equal partners to identify opportunities to address delays and unnecessary red-tape at borders and design and deploy targeted reforms that deliver commercially quantifiable results.
